Would The Duke and I work From the Prècis
“...Can there be any greater challenge to London’s Ambitious Mamas than an unmarried duke?
—Lady Whistledown’s Society Papers, April 1813
By all accounts, Simon Basset is on the verge of proposing to his best friend’s sister, the lovely—and almost-on-the-shelf—Daphne Bridgerton. But the two of them know the truth—it’s all an elaborate plan to keep Simon free from marriage-minded society mothers. And as for Daphne, surely she will attract some worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable"

No - it isn't clear enough that this is set in Spring or Summer.
I realise the quote gives a date, but it isn't clear that the quote was made in that same time period in which the story is set.
Hi everyone - I'll announce the final theme for this round in 10 hours. I think that is 3.00pm US EST?(It is 6.00am and almost winter for me 🥶)
If a selection post from week 10 is still missing when I go through the threads after the announcement, then the team will be automatically out.
If you use Option 2, you must pick from the team that I allocate out in the announcement post. Eg Team 10 picks from team 2. A list will be provided.
The team member whose shelves you choose from, must be a current member of the team. Hopefully I have removed all team members that have stopped playing, but please double-check.
The pass option is not available in this final week.
Finally, I will not be notifying the teams if their posts are not correct. Please check your own team members to make sure they meet the requirements for both selection and completion posts. Until all posts are correct, you cannot claim a win.
Week 11Option 1
8. Cold snap - read a book with less than 300 pages (below 30 Fahrenheit)
The book must still be at least 100 pages.
Option 2
Key date: 15 November 2019
If you use this option, this week you must select your book from the team shelves immediately below your team in this list. The last team picks from the first team.

DO NOT PICK from a team member who has left the team during the game. Picks must come from current members.
Option 3
Not available this week
Please ensure you follow the format shown in msg 3 of your team threads. when you post your selection and completion posts.
When you think your team has finished the Week 11 task (along with all the other books from prior weeks), please post here with your team name to claim the finish.I will then check the posts. If an element is missing, I will let the team know something is wrong.
If another team posts their completion, and everything is correct, they will win if the first team has not yet corrected their issue and reposted in this thread.
Hi everyone - Sorry, but its bedtime for me very soon...I'll check for completions as soon as I get up in the morning.
Good luck everyone!!

This round could have been won pretty easily by about 6 teams at least. So a great effort by everyone.
Thanks to everyone who played. This was a tough round which kicked off pre-COVID-19 and I know we lost a few players to real life due to that. And a huge thanks to all the Captains who make this game possible :) It simply can't be played without you.
